This summer we traveled to Pasadena to shoot Mara and Al’s backyard wedding. We had the absolute best time and I still get starry-eyed thinking back on it. Mara and Al are so in love that it’s infectious, and they certainly know how to throw a great party. Their wedding was DIY done right. They invested in all the right things to make for an unforgettable and extremely unique wedding experience for themselves and their guests. There was macramé, a canoe full of beer, an outdoor smoking corner made from wood pallets and beautiful cushions, a screech-in, and fireworks (just to name some of the cool highlights). It was a perfect day and we all had so much fun!

I could probably write a whole novel about this wedding and how much I loved it, but I think I’ll just show you the pictures because they can tell the story for me. You’ll see what I mean when I say it was a DIY success!

Thank you so much to Mara and Al for letting us share in your amazing wedding day and hiring us to capture the beautiful love you two have.

We love our clients and our social media followers, so we thought we would give you all a little treat to close out another amazing wedding season. And what better treat than some pet photography?!

Pets are family members so they deserve their rightful spot next to brides and grooms on their wedding day. But those pet pictures don’t always make the final cut when we post our blogs. Why, you may ask? Good question. We clearly have to start re-evaluating our priorities because pet pictures should be #1 on that list. Pets are people too!

Anyway, this whole blog post is just a bunch of pictures of pets all gussied up for their moms’ & dads’ weddings. We could write more about it but we know you guys don’t care about the words. You just want to see those dogs in bow-ties. So without further adieu, check out the cuteness overload below.

We can’t get enough of the pet pictures so here’s hoping there will be lots more to share next year.

Thank you to all of our 2017 brides and grooms for such a memorable wedding season!
